Looking at this for 83 yr old mother...how easy to fold up for storage and what is folded size as her space is very limited?

I am 5'2" and it is easy to pull up and fold but I am not so sure at how easy it would be for an 83 year old to lock it. But I don't know how her hands are. On the other hand this is a very light and portable walker and I love it. Would she be able to store it between a wall and the end of a couch perhaps where she may not need to lock it perhaps? Mine is in the car and it is quite late so tomorrow if it might work that way for you I could measure at certain points while folded to see if it would work under the handles while folded in places. The rounded bar swings away and is no problem. Just give a comment and I will check it out if you let me know what you need. I really love it in every way. It adjusts in height and mine is at the very bottom so if she is taller keep that in mind. It is an awesome color too

It is easy enough to fold up...no clue as to folded size. You flip the seat and push the lock up.

Very easy to fold...a strap is in the bottom of the pouch under the seat and you just pull up on it. There is also a lock feature when folded so it stays together. Folded it fits behind my car seat and I am 5'8" so the seat is back just about all of the way. The folded size measurements are listed on Amazon.

No, it doesn't fold up. It fits through a doorway so that's about the amount of room it takes to store. We keep ours on the back porch when the baby isn't here. It could fit in a corner of a room - not too big. I've not seen a collapsable one. Maybe they're not too sturdy if they aren't solid.

Yes quite easy. This one i bought for a 78 yo lady who rides my bus. The chair part and any part unfolds with ease, no struggling, no fighting with it just fold and go!

Yes, very easy to fold up. The challenge will be storing the piano itself. :-)

I'm not elderly, but I am disabled w/chronic pain-many elderly people can run circles around me. That being said, I have no trouble folding it up. I lay it in an unobstructed area in a hatchback, and slide it back out w/no problem. I did have a small car & it is a pain if you have to stand it behind the seat, or jockey the wheels around in a small trunk.

I would have to say no, I'm 78, and it would be to heavy and bulky for me. It weighs 12 1/2 lbs., when folded is 47" by 12" including the handle and wheels, when open it's 23" deep & 23 1/2" wide. It does come with a nice soft inset fitted bag for the basket itself, which can be removed, that could fit in a trunk with something in it to be removed if not to heavy to put back in the basket. I use mine to empty groceries from trunk to car then wheel the basket into the house to empty, it saves me many trips to the car. Hope this is of some help. Jackie K.

It is easy to fold, however it still does take about a 4x4 feet space to store it horizontally.

It is very easy to fold up and both sections stand up on end to save space. It is also very easy to put the sections back together. Very very user friendly. It only takes about 5 seconds to fold it up or unfold it.

It does NOT fold up for storage. The top folds down, which might help if you have a height restriction, but the base does not fold at all.

Yes it is easy to fold. Not extremely heavy. Easy to take apart. Making it easy to store.

Its very easy to fold it up, If you have somewhere to store it , it only takes 2-3 mins to close it up

I am interested if this will fold horizontally and store under a bed. And how long does it take to fold each time; I don't want to spend 20 minutes setting it up (am hoping for 5 min).

It folds easily but it is a bit heavy so unless it's right there where she can slide it under the bed then I'd say yes. If she has to lift it up to stand it against a wall, I'd say no. I am 66, in pretty good shape and I have trouble with that.

It's easy to fold and unfold. The first time, it was a little confusing but the directions are inside the bottom of the playpen and once you read them, it's a snap! It folds up into a 3 ft tall, 12" diameter case ( like a really small, squarish duffle bag) and it's easy to carry. We are the grandparents and we wanted something useful and small for our house - we keep it in the corner of a closet.

It is easy to deflate and fold up. But getting it back into the storage bag is difficult. I ended up buying a large bin to store all of it including air compressor. That was so I don't have to fold it too tightly to squeeze into the bag (irritating). I put the bin in my garage. It's large. Taking it out and putting it away is a process.
